Too many ads - having to endure the same 30-second commercial before every video clip is just too much. The live streaming continues to be hampered. No full-screen on tablets; still often forces an ad even when just switching from portrait to landscape and vice-versa. CNN has the best journalism team in news, but this app is incredibly sub-standard by comparison.

What a horrible design, I do not use my phone to look at news or any other app that is specifically for reading rather than just looking at pictures, on my tablets those huge blocks with a brief description of the article content is quite unsophisticated, learn from the design of The Washington Post or The New York Times. This new CNN's app design targets as its "audience" chimpanzees and other primates or perhaps only people that enjoys images and are fond of the funnies in a Sunday newspaper. Ugly, ugly, ugly!!!!

LOVE THIS APP! I love having quick 24hr access to CNN news. Having the app makes it easy & effortless for me to get updates & new news quickly throughout the day. I use the CNN app everyday & at night before I go to sleep. The CNN app makes it so "quick & easy" for me to always be current & informed! Great app!

This is a one sided view opinion site NOT news. I like to be as informed as possible so I listen to and watch multiple news sources. CNN is by far the worst. They are openly lying in many cases and omitting facts that would prove their narrative false in others. I cannot trust what they say on any topic if they are willing to hide facts for their own agendas.

The app is terrible. It constantly hangs, it often opens to the wrong story, and it takes forever to load. The widget is, by far, the worst widget I've ever experienced. It never works and just hangs. Giving it two stars only because it does show news, which is it purpose.

Clunky, slow, breaking news alerts come way after AP, BBC, and Fox... Pretty bad for the "number 1 news network" to not be the first or second one. Sometimes, NPR is the second fastest...

I love CNN ..... But the app widget does not work I have to keep uninstalling it because it has loading issues what's going on??? Will you guys get back to me and let me know if you're going to fix it it's running on an LG v20.... I literally have to uninstall everyday and it makes me mad I like the widget

Too many opinion articles. I want the news. Not news and blasting president. Idc what the company opinion is but every news article that deals with trump is a negative one. Who cares, i want the news. Not your opinion at all.

I love CNN till Trump got elected, now all they talk about is Trump! There had all the top stories now all they talk about is Trump. CNN is so slanted against Trump. WAKE UP CNN, YOU ARE LOSING AND FALLING FAST ON THE RATING! BRING BACK THE THE OLD REAL NEWS!!!!!! CNN

Way too many ads now before getting any content at all. I can exit this app and start up CBSN in less time than it takes to watch your endless ads... so that's what I did. CNN is a great app turned lame.

I enjoyed getting notifications of breaking news events, but the articles in this app are clearly opinions. If you are looking for news that is not biased and opinionated, you may want to try something like the NPR app.

I continue to be astounded by the atrocious grammar and lack of proofreading. I love reading the news and the CNN content is great but NPR and the BBC manage to produce the same product without all the annoying autocorrect and grammatical errors.

11-11-2013: Works flawlessly on my tablet! Simple layout, easy access to articles, categories well organized, videos load and play even better than YouTube! Just wish each story had a "Share" Icon so I could link to Facebook, e-mail etc. April 6, 2015: not bad on Motorola G but ads are sneaky. Mar 13, 2018: looks great, text size option, share buttons, very good.

If: All we the people from United States. Can get rid off All the craps from; CIVIL, STATES, FEDERAL, RELIGION'S AND POLITICAL CORRUPTION. THIS COUNTRY WOULD ITBE THE BEST PLACE FOR WORK AND LIFE OTHERWISE IT WILL BE THE SAME MISERY SINCE I CAME IN 1979. MY NAME IS: EDUARDO SALVADOR MARTINEZ

Not real news anymore. CNN has been in a death rattle state ever since they no longer report facts only biased propaganda working as a shill for the radical Left. They have lost all credibility and will soon be forgotten and tossed in the trash heap of fake news. Wake up America, they hate you.

These normies tried to take away our meme liberty and they got away with it we must do all we can in the name of our Lord and savior kek to destroy these normies and take back our memes who is with me!

Why? Why CNN? You claim this update gave us "improved page readability" in reality you removed the ability to scroll down as we see fit. I'm not sure what you were trying to "fix" with this "feature" but please remove it; it's awful.
